Targeting serotonin transporter (sert) for cancer immunotherapy
Patent published on the 2026-10-01 in WO under Ref WO2026207149 by UNIV CALIFORNIA [US] (Li Bo [us], Yang Lili [us])
Abstract: The invention provides methods for the induction of the serotonin transporter (SERT) gene in solid tumor-infiltrating cytotoxic CD8 T cells. In solid tumors, CD8 T cells secrete serotonin, which stimulates their antitumor reactivities, while SERT functions as a negative regulator by depleting intratumoral serotonin. Discoveries presented herein show that the inhibition of SERT using clinically approved selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs), a popular class of antidepressants, can signi[...]
Our summary: The invention targets the serotonin transporter (SERT) to enhance cancer immunotherapy. Inhibition of SERT in CD8 T cells boosts their antitumor activity. SSRIs show therapeutic synergy with anti-PD-1 therapy and correlate with patient survival in cancers.

Method for increasing salt tolerance in a crop plant
Patent published on the 2026-09-03 in WO under Ref WO2026181077 by THE DEAD SEA ARAVA SCIENCE CENTER DSASC [IL] (Barak Simon [il], Winters Gidon [il])
Abstract: The invention provides methods for identifying genes associated with plant stress tolerance and producing stress-tolerant crop plants by genome editing. Gene expression profiles under a selected stress are compared between a stress-tolerant plant and a closely related stress-sensitive plant to identify and prioritize candidate regulatory genes, including genes showing constitutively low and/or downregulated "stress-ready" expression in the tolerant plant. Selected homologs or orthologs are edite[...]
Our summary: The method identifies genes linked to salt tolerance in crops. It uses gene expression profiles to find candidate regulatory genes. Genome editing techniques like CRISPR are employed to create stress-tolerant crop plants.

Abstract: npj Digital Medicine, Published online: 13 August 2026; doi:10.1038/s41746-026-03106-2Applying advanced measurement technologies proactively in asymptomatic populations predictably yields false positives, as a consequence of Bayes’ Theorem. Yet the same Bayesian arithmetic suggests a remedy: adding context. Serial and multimodal measurements, integrated using context-aware AI that prioritizes within-person change over population norms, can reduce false positive rates while preserving sensitivi[...]
Our summary: The article discusses the impact of advanced measurement technologies on screening asymptomatic populations.

Abstract: Glioblastoma (GBM) is the most aggressive and common primary brain tumor, with a median survival of less than a year after diagnosis. γδ T lymphocytes are immune cells that can migrate to tumors and induce malignant cells’ apoptosis. Our previous in silico studies showed that higher γδ T-cell infiltration in GBM correlates with better patient survival, and in vitro experiments showed that GMB supernatants promote an antitumora[...]
Our summary: Glioblastoma-derived extracellular vesicles (EVs) modulate gamma delta T lymphocytes through a MIC-dependent mechanism. Increased CD69 expression, cytotoxicity, and cytokine production in T cells were observed following EV interaction. These findings offer insights for targeted immunotherapy development in glioblastoma patients.
